Share Your Stories
Share your stories on how the New Markets Tax Credit, Low-Income Housing Tax Credit, or Opportunity Zones benefit your community or how additional housing resources would be helpful to your work.
Make Your Voice Heard
Opportunity Finance Network advocates directly with policymakers and elected officials on behalf of CDFIs. Our members and CDFI practitioners are our best spokespeople.
We rely on the specialized expertise and on-the-ground experience of CDFI staff at all levels of the organization to influence and inform policy decisions.
Know the Issues
We focus on advancing public policies that strengthen and scale the CDFI industry for growth and greater impact.
